the MSRP, plus a little extra for the gesture and S&H.

You may need to go a *little* higher than that. For instance:

6399 Airport Shuttle

the Lugnet set database lists this as 139.99 MSRP. I have paid the following
(working from memory, prices are approximate) for some of my copies: (all
prices in USD, and do not include shipping) (I know I left one or two copies
out)

MIB, box in excellent shape, all seals intact, from an unnamed source: 500
Used with box, very good condition, slightly wrinkled instructions: 375
Used with box, only a very few parts missing, with torn instructions: 350
Used, no box, somewhat rougher, damaged stickers, badly torn instructions: 300
box of parts that I suspect has most of an airport shuttle in it: 200 (also
included some other stuff)

The prices on 6399 have went down a bit since I got my copies.

So, if you think you're going to get an airport shuttle for 139 plus a "little
extra", you're dreaming. Unless a "little extra" is 150 or so.

Ditto for a lot of the rest of your list.

I am listing all the sets that I would like to purchase from anyone who is willing to part with them. I would prefer to buy the items outright as that I am attempting to expand my town and I do not have extras of any of my sets although I do have a (...)
